Landlord from Hell

In Court

Was it this pig that caused Swine Flu?
We were taken to court and the case was heard on 23 June 2009. Guess what? The case was thrown out as the thick stupid landlord had lied to his solicitor.

He had told his solicitor who in turn told the court that there was a written tenancy agreement. When asked to produce it in court they could not.

The lawyer representing the landlord looked very embarrassed. No costs were awarded so the thick as a brick landlord will have to pay them. There is only one thing this thicko dislikes more than me right now, and that is spending money.

They have been told to go away and negotiate a date with me that I am prepared to vacate the premises by. Failing this, they have been told to start eviction proceedings again and this time they have been told to do it right.

It took them almost six months to get the case to court and now it is likely that they will have to start it all over again.

The great thing is, I am living here rent free as I refuse to pay rent until the dangerous electrical problems have been sorted out. Had he done this in the first place, he would not be £4,000.00 + out of pocket. But at least I can now afford a really good holiday compliments of the thick farmer.

The Thick Farmer - True Story

2009-05-25T09:48:00.000-07:00

A neighbour of Bill the (Thick) farmer (Kidburngill Farm) drove past one of his fields every day for a week. Every time he drove past there was thick Bill the (Thick) farmer standing in the middle of the field doing nothing.

One day the neighbour decided to stop and walked into the field and asked Bill the (Thick) farmer why he was spending every day standing in his field doing nothing.

I’m trying to win the Nobel Prize.

How asked the confused neighbour?

Well I heard they give the Nobel Prize to people who are out standing in their field.

It's true... :o)

I lived in one of his properties for ten years, ten years of living hell.

The windows leaked, the electricity kept going off and not a single door in the house fitted. In winter it was like living in a fridge.

This thick farmer refused to do anything about any of the problems in this house.

Last year I changed jobs and my payday changed from the last working day of the month to the 15th day of the month. Why did I call this farmer thick?

This is where it all started to turn nasty. My rent was paid monthly on or about the second day of the month. It was rent in arrears for the previous month, so, providing I paid it in the moth it was due, it covered the previous month. thick farmer Bill thought that I was trying to fiddle him. I explained it to him, I drew pictures and even did an Excel spreadsheet for him that a 5th grader would have understood. This thick Bill the farmer was unable to understand it, neither was his even thicker foul mouther other half.

Then I wrote to him asking for the electricity to be sorted out as I believed that it was now in such a bad state, it was a serious fire risk.

Several times a day and every night the main RCCB fuse would trip and we lost all of our power. Thick Bill then sent his son-in-law round to sort out the problem. However he could not locate the fault and returned a couple of days later with a different RCCB. Different size, different make and replaced the original.

We now had all of the same problems, loss of electricity, flashing lights, smell of burning and guess what, the RCCB no longer trips. So the potential fire risk just doubled or quadrupled. We are now forced to sleep in shifts so that during the night, one of us is awake at all times.

Thick Bill wants us out and wants us out ASAP. We have tried to get out for safety reasons, the problem is, letting agents want a reference from the current thick uneducated landlord and he refuses to give an acceptable reference. So thicko is stuck with us and we are stuck in a fire trap! That said, we no longer pay thick as a brick Bill any rent and by the time we do get out he will be about £3,000.00 out of pocket. :o)

We will of course use the £3k + to take a nice holiday abroad, when we do eventually move. Thanks William.

In the third picture you can see how the lighting wiring has been done. You will note that none of the earth wires have been covered with the appropriate and legally required sleeving. Another example of the standard of work a Sellafield trained (his son-in-law) electrician is prepared to go, cut corners and put lives at risk to save his father-in-law a few pence.

Is this indicative of the standard of his work on Sellafield Nuclear Site? I can only suggest that Sellafield allow and condone this standard of work by their electricians both on and off site.

The electrician in question is one:
